The 5% Life

A Bold New Path to Balance in a Chaotic World


The 5% Life: A Bold New Path to Balance in a Chaotic World.
By Darren Cowlbeck

What if the secret to a more fulfilling, joyful, and purpose-driven life wasn’t doing more—but doing less, with intention?

In The 5% Life, communication coach and behavioural psychology expert Darren Cowlbeck introduces a transformative framework for living well by dedicating just 5% of your day—72 minutes—to high-impact habits that nourish your mind, body, and soul.

Born in a quiet English coastal town and now living between the neon streets of Tokyo and the serene mountains of Japan, Darren blends science, story, and soul in a book that’s both deeply practical and profoundly human. Whether you're overwhelmed, uninspired, or simply ready for something more, this book will help you:

- Break free from burnout and busyness
- Design daily rituals that align with your values
- Build clarity, confidence, and calm—one micro-step at a time
- Live deliberately, with a rhythm that reflects who you truly are

Perfect for anyone seeking sustainable change, The 5% Life proves that even the smallest shifts can lead to the biggest breakthroughs.
